Itinerary

  • The British Museum

    Trade in paintings for mummies and historical artifacts on a tour of the British Museum. The enormous collection spans 6000 years of human history, featuring items from all over the world like Samurai armor and rare Assyrian lion hunt reliefs. Your guide will take a serious but enjoyable approach towards the museumā€™s galleries, discussing primitive tribes and fallen empires through a carefully chosen selection of items. Youā€™ll learn about the Mummy of Katebet, the Lewis Chessmen, and the Rosetta Stone ā€“ the actual rock, not the language learning program. Walk away with an understanding of what we humans have achieved during our short history and hopefully youā€™ll be proud to call yourself a part of this incredible species.
